Hi, I’m Michelle

I’m Michelle—a solo traveler, photographer, and outdoor adventurer roaming the West in my 4Runner, chasing sunsets, dirt roads, and meaningful moments off the beaten path.

About

I’m Michelle, an outdoor enthusiast and adventurer who’s always chasing the next great trail. Originally from California, I’ve lived in Minnesota, studied in Seattle, and even spent some time just outside of D.C. But in 2020, everything changed when I packed up my little Mazda and set off on a cross-country road trip—and I never went back. Now, I spend the warm months living out of my 4Runner, exploring the West, hiking, offroading, and meeting amazing people along the way. When the long night hits in November, I am usually found migrating south to Utah.
